I need a new chassis. I made the mistake of buying an HPI Pro-D... and they never made it to America, and now no one can get parts. Joyous times. So now I'm looking for a chassis that I can achieve the countersteer mod with... just because it's crazy awesome looking.

i always thought the countersteer thing was cool but i can see it getting very annoying after a while and eventually being unplugged and removed. drifting in these rc is fairly easy with the right tires or in my case pvc plastic tires.

yeah I dropped about 2k into 1 chassis.... then I broke the lower control arm...parts are no longer available for those, and wasn't released in the U.S.A. I also started a thread in the life in general area regarding this, but either place I guess hahaha here or there!

you should check if there is a compatable control arm from another model. that should work it may be plastic but your rc will work. my rc is a hpi rs4 sport just to show you how old it is. no number just the first version lol so i have to improvise sometimes too. iv found that a lot of the parts are interchangable between the different types and models.
